Hurricane Sandy (Defender of Man)

With the impending hurricane a lot of our hearts are not at rest.  We worry, we're scared, what are we going to do?  What about our family, will they be okay?  It is hard sometimes to see such disaster on the earth.  We question God.  We wonder Why?  But we can believe that GOD IS SOVEREIGN!  He is performing His will on the earth.  When the storm came to the disciple's, and Jesus was asleep in the boat.  They worried!  They said "we will perish."  They were with the King of King's and Lord of Lords.  Yet their hearts were full of fear.  They had seen all the miracles.  The multiplication of loaves, people being raised from the dead, numerous healing's.  Yet, still yet, they did not trust!
Jesus was trying to find a place to rest His head.  He had given the disciples authority.  It says "foxes have hole's and the birds of the air have nests but the Son of Man has no where to lay His head."

COULD WE GIVE HIM REST?   Can Jesus lay His head on us?  We have the ability to calm the storm!  He told His disciples "Oh you of little faith!"  What???

My thought is Let's give Him rest.  Let's pray for the Father's will.  Let our hearts be still and know HE is GOD!  WE CAN trust HIM!  REALLY!  REALLY!  Ludicrous but true!  HE IS worthy to be trusted in.

Without faith it is impossible to please God!  Let us have faith.  Let us believe and give the Good Master rest.

He Will have His way in the storm.  It will work out for good.  God see's THE END TO THE BEGINNING!  He is perfect and He knows the best way to win soul's.  He will use what ever measure to do so.  He is after our hearts.

Great Thought!

There is a place that your fighting from victory not for it. There is a place in the Spirit set aside for us where we make the enemy confused. We weary him by our rest. We discourage him by our faith. We demoralize him with our joy. We depress him by our endurance. He is dispirited by our favor; defeated by our grace.








Excerpt from Graham Cooke's book The way of the Warrior.

HE IS SURELY ALIVE!!

I want you to make a noise that echoes in heaven, shakes hell and resounds in the earth and to  all its inhabitants: God is not dead He Is surely alive!  He is roaring in me, roaring like a lion. 
Kindle a fire in Zion, cause to burn away all doubt, fear, self sufficiency.  Make me strong men, men that won't back down from any enemy.  Yea raise me up a troop, a troop of armed men, men with righteousness in one hand, hope in the other.  Men with lion's hearts and eyes of fire.  Men that make the enemy flee before them.
Let this word never again be said in our land and homes "the enemy is attacking, the devil is devouring."  But let it be said that "my men are going forth in band's with unity like a cloud. They have sword's so sharp they cut before they touch. Their  Feet are stable: fashioned like a bull when he plows, strong as dynamite. These are people smooth as water, making their way through the land with faces set like flint, so that anything that strikes them is broken but they remain untouched.  Make the earth afraid, yes fear will come on the hypocrites, and my strong men, my skilled men, even the generation that I have desired is coming forth by bands.  
It's time to make some noise!
